Hi fellow birders

I have about 35 Canada Geese hanging out in my cove, no fluffy chicks  
anymore. I was wondering if these smaller-than-normal birds with  
mature plumage are the chicks of a month ago. How long does it take  
for the chicks to lose their downy feathers and grow in the new adult  
plumage? Also have RB Merg with 6 chicks last week and a pair of Pine  
Siskins visiting the feeders.

Lynn
